What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles building cloud-native, secure, scalable systems that combine backend services, modern frontends, and AI/ML integrations with strong DevOps and team leadership.

I am a Senior Full-Stack Java Developer with over nine years building large-scale distributed systems, cloud-native architectures, and AI-integrated enterprise applications across fintech, healthcare, telecom, education, and industrial automation.

I architect and implement high-performance microservices and scalable APIs using Java and Spring Boot, and I build accessible, responsive frontends with Angular, React, and Vue.js while applying SOLID, TDD, and clean-architecture principles.

I lead cloud and DevOps initiatives across Azure, GCP, and AWS, integrating AI/ML, MLOps, Kafka, Terraform, Kubernetes, and comprehensive security/compliance practices (SOC2, OWASP, GDPR) to deliver secure, performant, and maintainable software.
